Signals

code

• verifiedA frozen deterministic verifier re-checked the claim and passed.ink
• replayedThe event chain re-folds end to end and matches the recorded head.ink
• supersededA newer accepted record replaced this one; it stays under its seam.gold seam
• bankedA closed route or proven obstruction, kept at full ink as a result.ink
• leasedA key-holder holds a live lease on the obligation (claimed_at + ttl).brass
• contestedAn unresolved contradiction or adversarial probe names this claim.ink
• deprecatedSigned withdrawal — retraction or owner deprecation; retained, not erased.ink-hairline
• claimedNo signal yet — no verifier run, no signed judgment. Absence is the mark.ink-4

material

• goldhuman key only — accept marks, attestations, supersession seams; the amount of gold on a page is a measurement
• brassthe instrument — chart strip, time rail, recency decay, live leases
• cinnabarexternal adoption only — OEIS approval, Nexus ingestion; never emphasis
• bankedfull ink, never gray, never strikethrough — a signed dead end is a result

actors

• human keyDrunken-bishop pattern of the signing pubkey; the same signer reads the same everywhere. Accept and attestation columns admit only key marks.
• key, off-pageA human key-holder whose pubkey hex is not carried at this row.
• agentOne fixed mark for every agent — machine actors do not earn a recognizable pattern. An agent proposes; it cannot sign an accept.
• unsignedVisible absence — a dashed empty frame, because no signature is information.

Honestly: a three-step wghtramp on tabular numerals, not a true GRAD axis — neither STIX Two Text nor JetBrains Mono carries one, and STIX’s weight axis floors at 400, so the ramp lives only on the mono. The contract is the same: the value moves exactly once, on a state transition, never by animation.
